Formatting the Card on the EOS RP

Solution

Formatting the Card

If the card is new or was previously formatted (initialized) by another camera or computer, format the card with the EOS RP.
 
The number of possible shots varies depending on the  remaining capacity of the card, the settings of image quality, ISO speed, etc.
  Setting [ : Release shutter without card] to [Disable] will prevent you from forgetting to insert a card.
 
When the access lamp is lit or blinking, it indicates that images are being written to, read from, or erased from the card, or data is being transferred. Do not open the card slot/battery cover compartment. Also, never do any of the following while the access lamp is lit or blinking.
Otherwise, it can damage the image data, card, or camera.
  • Removing the card.
  • Removing the battery.
  • Shaking or striking the camera.
  • Unplugging and connecting a power cord (when household power outlet accessories (sold seperately) are used).
  If the card already contains recorded images, the image number may not start from 0001.
  If a card-related error message is displayed on the screen, remove and reinsert the card. If the error persists, use a different card.
If you can transfer images on the card to a computer, transfer all the images and then format the card with the camera. The card may then return to normal.
  Do not touch the card's contacts with your fingers or metal objects. Do not expose the contacts to dust or water. If smudges adhere to the contacts, contact failure may result.
  Multimedia cards (MMC) cannot be used. (Card error will be displayed.)
  Use of UHS-II microSDHC/SDXC cards with a microSD to SD adapter is not recomended. When using UHS-II cards, use SDHC/SDXC cards.
